Just watched Sleuth launch this morning at 5AM CDT.

Basically cut out of USN (Ultimate Shopping Network) and launched with station ID. First show: The A Team.

Sleuth...collecting a license fee from cable operators for programming that most stations wouldn't run even if it was free.

Saw that too (or rather, the VCR saw it and I caught up with it a few hours later when I shook off the sleep and emerged to greet the new year).

Did anyone catch the end of Trio? I'd thought it was going to be at 2 AM EST (you sure you're still on daylight time there, Andrews? :) - but it was apparently at 3 AM, instead, and by then the VCR had shut off. (As had I!)

Sleuth also shows Knight Rider - which I noticed was airing on TV Land this afternoon.

It is a good idea but very poor programming. If they really want to have mysteries and such what about charlie chan and sherlock holmes or even hardy boys/nancy drew?

My guess about the Sherlock Holmes movies is that NBC/Universal doesn't own the rights to them.

The Charlie Chan movies appear to be taboo; I remember that Fox Movie Channel had planned on showing them a few years back but got such backlash from various Asian-American organizations that they dropped the movies from the schedule at the last minute. (Being PC is going to be the death of us all yet.)

I don't think I personally could stomach seeing the Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew series again, but it again comes down to who has the rights ...<P ID="signature">______________

From what I have seen of the new schedule, most of the shows on Sleuth are on our local independent TV station here in Los Angeles area (KDOC-TV Anaheim/Los Angeles).

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that DirecTV isn't carrying it. They probably think Trio is still on that satellite transponder.<P ID="signature">______________

Huh?

Kyle, do you and I watch the same KDOC?

I just checked the Sleuth schedule for the next seven days at their website and I didn't find a single show that is on KDOC.

For those who care, this is KDOC's weekday schedule:
8:00am Little House on the Prairie
9:00am Rockford Files
10:00am Cagney & Lacey
11:00am Kojak
12:00n Perry Mason
1:00pm Matlock
2:00pm In the Heat of the Night
3:00pm Hawaii Five-O
4:00pm Mission: Impossible
5:00pm Becker (2 episodes)
6:00pm Magnum, P.I.
7:00pm Perry Mason
8:00pm Mystery Movie: Mon: Columbo (2-hour episodes), Tue: Twilight Zone (3 episodes), Wed: Ellery Queen, Thu: Banacek, Fri: Columbo (90-minute episodes)
9:30pm Paid Programming, including the legendary and late Dr. Gene Scott at 10:00, followed by infomercials and home shopping overnight, then religion in the morning. There is (obviously) no infomercial at 9:30 on Mondays, but KDOC makes up for it by running two of them at 9:00 on Wednesdays.<P ID="signature">______________
